WOW! The fireworks for UNEXPECTEDLY good. Exceeded wildest expectations. Start off slow, half-hearted & then … BOOM. A salvo that rocked the stone pier I was standing in. Never seen such a crescendo in Wolfeboro & I have been going to Wolfeboro fireworks — July 4th & New Year’s Eve — since the mid 1990s.

It was at 6pm. Yes, 6pm. That was EARLY. I was a bit put out. But, it worked. It was short too. Just over 10 minutes. By 6:12pm I was walking back to my car.

It was billed as taking place ‘at the docks‘. But, per the norm, it was at ‘Brewster‘. Luckily I had gone to Brewster. Worked out.

Glad I went. Made my day. Great fireworks.

A Very Happy New Year 2023 To YOU.

Click to ENLARGE. My ticket for the Dec. 29 show. I had the BEST seat in the house.

Always a nice touch from the VERY CLASSY folks at ‘Revels’ (Cambridge, MA) — the Revel’s Mother Ship (so to speak). I always liked it AFTER I had been to the show. Alas, there was no show last year, & this year, the show that I had a ticket for was cancelled. But, getting this uplifting video is a consolation (though to be fair, I was also sent a link to a recorded version of the whole show that I have yet to sit down and watch).

Well, enjoy.

Having them perform through masks is not optimum. A shame. A crying shame.

I hope that we can get back to ‘normal’ (i.e., the likes of 2019) in 2022.

Happy New Year.

Thank YOU, Revels (Cambridge, MA).

This SAME triple digits occurred to me last night/this morning while I was watching the New Year Eve parties on TV. I, as is my wont, did some juggling in my head. It intrigued I. I am not sure whether this has been commented on — but it sure warrants mention.

I hope I got my years right! SMILE. It is easy to overlook one. I got 1999 right away, BUT forgot 2000. Yikes. So, please check out my math. I will update the second chart if I have it wrong.

Happy New Year 2022.
